I write theme park reviews for a couple of different websites and want to be as accurate as possible. As of 2008, Dollywood added cameras to the 1st three rows, enabling riders to view their on-ride videos and upload them to YouTube. Is this still the case? I honestly didn’t notice when I rode Tennessee Tornado last year. Great ride either way.

It feels like Dollywood ran out of money at the end of the ride … there could have been an additional inversion or helix to soak up some of the speed after the sidewinder before ending abruptly. I liked it much more in the back than the front.

Wed, 24 Oct 2012 00:50:04 +0000http://www.thecoastercritic.com/?p=10030#comment-16957Short but sweet. This was the first time I ever rode a roller coaster I couldn't see – except for one large vertical loop – and about which I knew nothing, so I went into it blind. It was only as the train came off the initial drop and headed into the tunnel that I thought WOW, this is some good airtime! Really fun ride, which is saying something for someone who only recently began to appreciate inversions, and as others have said, very smooth. I think I I blew an opportunity, however. After leaving Dollywood I learned that at one point the park put cameras on the 1st three rows so that riders could view their videos after the ride and upload them onto YouTube; whether this is still the case I don't know.

Wed, 10 Oct 2012 02:44:49 +0000http://www.thecoastercritic.com/?p=10030#comment-16836We went to Dollywood for our honeymoon a few weeks ago during a torrential downpour. I walked right onto the ride and was the only rider. Very smooth ride, other than a little lag going through the loops due to the empty train behind me. The Tornado, and the rest of Dollywood for that matter, does wonders at incorporating the landscape into the ride. Overall, it's an excellent ride.

Wed, 03 Oct 2012 19:36:54 +0000http://www.thecoastercritic.com/?p=10030#comment-16785It is a damn shame that Arrow went out of business just as soon as they finally got it right. Though short, this coaster is very smooth, really intense and unique, especially with the big drop through the mountain. I still look forward to riding it every time I go to Dollywood. It was also important because this ride was where it all began for Dollywood in terms of moving toward more of a thrill seeking audience. The success of Tennessee Tornado led to Thunderhead, Mystery Mine and Wild Eagle.

Wed, 03 Oct 2012 05:09:38 +0000http://www.thecoastercritic.com/?p=10030#comment-16783I had the same thought. I kept looking out at the surrounding area and drawing in a few more elements with my imagination. But this was the park's first big ride. Dollywood might not have had the funds to make it much bigger back then.
